[c-nsp] Multicast not passing over Q-in-Q tunnel

Jose,
If link-layer IP mcast 224.0.0.0/24 is passing but other IP mcast is not then it's most likely IGMP snooping problem.
You can check by asking customer to enable RIPv2/OSPF on this link and see if RIPv2 routes/OSPF adjacency are OK on both ends.

Alex, 


We disabled IGMP snooping on the 6500, but could not doing it on the 3560 because its a global command and there is more than 1 customer on that device.  That being said, I am unsure as to the negative impact of disabling globally and erred on the side of caution.  I have not done any captures as this is a remote DC.  I am currently working on getting devices ready for capture to see what we are seeing on each port to ensure we are seeing the same traffic in/out from the customer.  I have not set any ports on the 6500 as an mrouter port.

  Hello,
  Have you tried/checked that:
  1/ link-layer IP mcast 224.0.0.0/24 is passing?
  2/ disable IGMP snooping
  3/ set 6500 ports as mrouter ports?

    I have a customer to whom I hand-off a port from a 6500 in vlan 975 and is
    also a q-in-q tunnel.  This traverses two 6500's and terminates to the
    customer on the far-end on a Cisco 3560.  The customer is able to pass
    unicast traffic with no problem, but is having issues with multicast.  The
    customer has a Cisco 4948 on each end and is passing us two vlans.  I opened
    a TAC case and they said it should work fine, that the tunnel wont
    discriminate with regards to traffic.  Anyone here have any experience with
    such an issue? Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.
